190 - Old Testament Survey - Jonah

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 23 Oct 2020 12:00:00 +0000

This week we talk about the book of Jonah. You won't get moralism here. The point of the book is too important for that. Jesus' words in the Gospels about Jonah are our major interpretive lens. Listen in as we find Christ in this book of the minor prophets.

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 16 Oct 2020 12:00:00 +0000

This week Todd and Chris turn to the book of Esther. Todd really has some great insight into the book since he grew up Jewish. How do we understand this book that never mentions God? Is God still there? What about his promises? What does God's apparent absence mean for the promised Messiah? Whose word is irrevocable: the decree of the Medes and the Persians, or God's word? Listen in as we talk about finding Christ in this unique book of the Bible.

Introduction to the Old Testament by Longman and Dillard

Kingdom Prologue by Meredith G. Kline

Outline of Joshua

Joshua as successor to Moses

1. Joshua stood in heavenly council like Moses Ex. 24:13
2. Commissioned by the Lord Deut. 31: 14-15
3. Brought Word to people Joshua 3:9ff.
4. Interceded for the people Joshua 7:7-9
5. Leads them across divided sea Joshua Ch. 3
1. Holy War against Canaanites Deut. 20:18-20 - intrusion
2. The Land becomes holy ground Joshua 5:13-15
3. Israel becomes unified Joshua 3:17; Ch. 22
4. A nation under God's law Joshua 23:1-8
5. From the outside the conquest is successful, but…
Israel in Canaan

Structure of Biblical Authority by Meredith G. Kline

The inadequacies of the conquest

1. The people let some Canaanites remain Joshua 9:1-15; 16:10; 17:12-13
2. Retaining the land was conditional Joshua 24:19-28
3. Unity fragile at best Joshua 22:10-12
4. Death - never enjoying the inheritance Joshua 24:29-33
5. Rahab more faith than Israel
1. "Joshua" Hebrew for Jesus (Savior) - Jesus a New Joshua!
2. A new inheritance that cannot be taken away 1 Pet. 1:3-5; Rev. 21:1-2
3. A better warrior that will eradicate God's enemies Rev. 19:11-16
4. A better unity that lasts John 17:22
5. A real obedience to God's law from the heart Heb. 8:10
6. Joshua typifies post-Pentecost ministry of Christ - leading the Church to the Promised Land.
7. Acts - the beginning of the New Covenant - through the gospel
8. The fulfillment of Holy War is Second Coming Rev. 19
Looking to a better covenant

Episode 26 - Apologetics and the Canaanite Conquest

Episode 28 - Theocracy and… Immigration?

Outline of Judges

Background

1. In the Promised Land, enemies still left
2. No new Joshua - what will people do without a leader?
1. Cycle 2:10-19 - Apostasy, discipline, repentance, judge, deliverance, apostasy…
  1. Othniel the best - marries covenant child Judg. 1:13
  2. Samspon the worst - marries pagan woman, lusts after prostitutes
  3. Othniel - People cried out to God Judg. 3:9; God give rest Judg. 3:11 - Sampson: no cry, no rest
2. Downward spiral of the judges - Othniel to Sampson
  1. Beginning - war against Canaanites Judg. 1:1-26
  2. End - civil war Judg. 8:1; 9:1-57; 19:1-21:5
3. Unity to disunity
The downward spiral
1. "There was no king" Judg. 17:6; 18:1; 19:1; 21:25
2. "Everyone did what was right in their own eyes," Judg. 17:6; 21:25
C.The theme - no righteous king = apostasy
D.The temporary solution - 1 Samuel - King David
1. A new king who can make his people truly righteous - not David.
2. A king who can atone for apostasy.
3. A king that can truly unify the people.
4. A king who lives forever.
5. A king who can rid the land of the Canaanites - kingdom
6. In Judges, our own hearts are revealed apart from a King who can make us righteous. In a sense, Judges exegetes Genesis 3 and the need for Christ the king.
The eternal solution
1. Total depravity only takes time and circumstance to show itself.
2. The Law of God cannot produce good works!

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 18 Oct 2019 12:00:00 +0000

If you started out your Christian life in churches like Todd and Chris did, you probably got a heavy dose of dispensational premillennialism. In this episode, we compare and contrast premillennialism, postmillennialism, and amillennialism. First we talk about the way the Old Testament prophets talked about the millennial period. Next, we talk about how the book of Revelation talks about the same period of time. Finally we talk about how the real question is: When does the Kingdom come in power and glory?

Much of Jesus's life and ministry took place on mountains - and yet he avoided Jerusalem. When Jesus underwent his wilderness temptation as the Last Adam, he defeated Satan. Now Satan is bound so that he cannot stop the spread of the gospel around the whole world. Download, listen, and tell your friends!

Daniel chapters 2 and 9 are the focus of this week's episode. First, in Daniel 2, there are two mountains: Israel is the mountain that cuts into the world power, and another mountain that crushes all world powers. Next, Daniel 9 is about God's promise that within 70 weeks of Israel's captivity, God would send the Messiah and ultimately save his people. Finally we talk about how the Jubilee is the key, and how Jesus is one who guarantees the ultimate salvation.

When Joshua led Israel into the Promised Land, they went through another baptismal ordeal in the Jordan River. The war that ensued was not a just war as measured by the principle of common grace - it was holy war. Then Israel's kings were mostly pictures of what Jesus would not be like. Finally, the mountain-site of the temple was a picture of heaven itself. Download, subscribe, and tell your friends!

This week, we talk about republication from a few different angles. First, God gave Canaan to Israel because of his gracious promise to Abraham. Second, God is the divine warrior who defeats all of Israel's enemies - both human and demonic. Third, God's presence is located in different places before and after Sinai. Finally, the typological covenant of works with Israel shows us that sinners sin. Download, subscribe, and tell your friends!

In this section, Kline looks at how God reveals the consummation of all things in the types and shadows of Israel. Next, he describes the relationship between a covenant that God makes, and the canon (or authoritative body of literature) that governs the covenant. Finally, he ties together phenomena like the Holy Spirit hovering (over creation and over Israel), the tabernacle, and the movement of all of that into God's Sabbath rest. God creates and he redeems - from beginning to end. Download, subscribe, and tell your friends!

If you are concerned about standing before God on Judgment Day, we double down on our insistence that you have already undergone that judgment in Christ. First, we talk about how different events in the Old Testament were types of the final judgment. Next, we talk about the redemptive judgment aspect of events like the flood and crossing the Red Sea. Finally, we talk about how Har Magedon will be the location of the final judgment.

We continue in chapter 10 this week. First, we talk about how worship during the time of Abraham was not theocratic. He built altars, but the culture all around him was very much like ours. Next, we talk about how - even at Abraham's stage of history - there was an antichrist crisis. God's people do suffer, but God has not lost in past antichrist crises - and he won't lose in the final Antichrist crisis.

Finally, we talk about how Jesus is like both Adam and Israel in wilderness temptation. And you know what that means: Republication!

Next we talk about how Canaan was like Eden (and like heaven). We take a moment to camp out on the idea of the Sabbath. Finally, we talk about how the republication of the covenant of works at Sinai is related to Eden being a mountainous replica of heaven. You're going to like this!

Chapter 4 is the last one that focuses on heaven the way this book has been so far. In this chapter, Kline suggests that the Spirit replicates the glory of God in every aspect of creation. For example, we see the theme of the Spirit of God overshadowing persons or groups of people throughout the Bible. In the same way, God designed certain things in creation to serve that same overshadowing function. But we also talk about patriarchy and Kline's unique take on the image of God in man. There's something for everyone!

What will it be like when God transforms this creation into the new heavens and new earth? That is the topic Kline is dealing with in this chapter. One possibility is that there will be a lot of continuity with this creation. Another possibility is that there will be such radical discontinuity that it is almost as though God must create everything all over again. Give the episode a listen and let us know what you think!

098 - Covenant Theology Under Attack

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 30 Nov 2018 14:00:00 +0000

This week we discuss Kline's article from the mid 1990s called Covenant Theology Under Attack. First, we talk about Kline's critique of Daniel Fuller. Fuller rejected the idea that God ever related to people on the basis of a works principle. Fuller argued that human obedience could not add to God's glory. Here, he appealed to Luke 17:10, like many Reformed theologians. Like the authors of Merit & Moses, Fuller also used a speculative, ontological analysis to argue that any reward God might have given Adam would have far exceeded the value of Adam's obedience. Next, Kline focuses his critique on John Murray because Murray restricted the definition of covenant to involve only the principle of grace. Finally, Kline critiques Murray's student and successor, Norman Shepherd because Shepherd followed Murray's covenant theology to its logical conclusion, and Shepherd denied the imputation of the active obedience of Christ to believers.

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 23 Nov 2018 14:00:00 +0000

This is the last episode about Kingdom Prologue. First, Jesus was incarnate as an ordinary man at his first coming, and he will be dazzlingly bright at his second coming. Next, in the same way, the second person of the Trinity made appearances in the Old Testament. At first, he would come as the angel of the Lord, but appear to people as an ordinary man. But after an episode of judgment, he would appear as the pillars of fire and smoke. Other times, he would appear as the bright glory-cloud after judgment. Finally, the good news is that we do not have to build a ladder to get up to God. God has come down to us in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son.

This is a long episode, but it is so worth it if you are married, thinking about getting married, or know someone who is married (that should cover just about everyone). Todd discusses four chapters from his doctoral dissertation on divorce. First, he discusses the context and the meaning of Matthew 5:31-32. Next, Todd discusses the way the Church has understood divorce during different ages. Then Todd surveys the different approaches to divorce today in believing churches. Finally, Todd describes his own pastoral approach to divorce. That really sets it apart from the other contemporary approaches. The subject matter is heavy, but we think you will appreciate it. Please let us know either way!

God demonstrates his love toward us in that he satisfies his own justice by sending his Son to bear the punishment we deserve. Finally, we talk about election.

067 - Kingdom Prologue - Ch 4 - Answering 3 Objections to Merit and Works

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 27 Apr 2018 13:00:00 +0000

This week is theological MMA (mixed martial arts). Kline answered three main objections to the principles of merit, simple justice, and the covenant of works. His arguments are strong and forceful, but Lee and Chris press them. Like last week, this also involves the definition of grace. Give it a listen and let us know what you think!

If you appreciate Meredith Kline's theology, this is a must-listen episode. He always talked about law and gospel, works and grace. Since this is so closely tied to justification, he would look for opportunities to work these things into lectures and conversations. Take notes and learn some of the most important hermeneutical principles!

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 13 Apr 2018 13:00:00 +0000

This week Lee and Chris discuss the other side of the eschatological sanctions: the curse sanction. We also discuss judgment and what it means to know good and evil. This subject can get very heavy – even depressing – but we make sure to bring it back to the gospel. The good news is that we do not bear the curse or the final judgment because Jesus has borne the curse for us!

The elephant in the room is often the tension that exists between Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia (East) and Westminster Seminary California (West). That tension centers around the relationship between two doctrines: union with Christ, and justification. Listen in as Lee and Chris discuss this in a way that is intended to be fair to those with whom we disagree and magnifies Christ at the same time. You'll have to be the judge of whether we accomplished that or not.

048 - Comparing & Contrasting Meredith Kline's Understanding of the Glory-Spirit and the Image of God with the Eastern Orthodox Doctrine of Theosis

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 21 Jul 2017 10:00:00 +0000

Lee has done a fair amount of reading about the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of theosis. As we discussed our way through Images of the Spirit, it seemed like there were some point of similarity between what Kline was seeing in the Scriptures about the Glory-Spirit replicating his image in human beings in terms of physical luminosity, and the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of theosis. We thought we would explore this idea in this episode.

This episode covers the fourth and final chapter of Images of the Spirit. Here Kline focuses on the significance of Genesis 3:8 and the day of judgment. Even if listeners are already aware of how Kline understands this, it is a prime example of how Kline's attention to both the context (forest) and the vocabulary and/or grammar (trees) provides fresh insight into the biblical text.

This week we begin our new series, working through Meredith Kline's next book: Images of the Spirit. As we began to prepare for this, we realized that it would simply be too much for us and for our listeners if we attempted to cover the entire chapter in one episode. So this is part one of chapter one. Pick up a copy of Images of the Spirit and work through this with us as we go through this series!

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 03 Mar 2017 14:00:00 +0000

This is a bit of a lesson in hermeneutics (or, how to read the Bible). We wanted to make it practical, so we chose a topic (immigration) that is filling the headlines and provoking comment from Christians and church bodies across the theological spectrum. However, almost no one who is chiming in is considering carefully enough the context of the biblical passages they are using. Lee and Chris want to use this as an opportunity to talk about the point of the Bible, how we should read it, and the consequences of misreading it.

Have you ever heard someone describe Israel's conquest of the Canaanites as genocide or some other form of completely unjust war? Meredith Kline understood what Israel did in a very unique way. Lee and Chris think that Kline's understanding of the Canaanite Conquest has helpful implications for defending the Christian faith against attacks regarding this particular episode in covenant history.

020 - Meredith Kline On The Reward That Christ Earned For Us

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 06 Jan 2017 14:00:00 +0000

Lee and Chris have one more week off. But we are bringing you another lecture by Meredith Kline. This one is from March 25th 1999. It seemed appropriate for that time of the year that we especially tend to think about the future. Of course Meredith Kline is talking about that ultimate future in which we will dwell with God thanks to everything he accomplished for us in the person and work of his Son Jesus Christ.

Show Notes:

Priesthood

Culture is subservient to cult

Image of God

Blessing sanction came to expression in the Sabbath

Tree of Life

Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil

Tree of Life reserved for beyond probation

Tree of Life is sacramental

Blessing sanctions symbolized (Tree of Life, Sabbath)

Curse sanctions verbalized (in the day you eat of it, you will surely die)

Only options are heaven and hell

Resurrection of the righteous and the wicked

The final state is an embodied experience

Common curse

Physical death is a temporary experience

How blessing sanctions would have worked their way out

Probation phase and conferral phase

Conferral phase: confirmation stage and consummation stage

Probation phase has a cultic focus

After the probation would have been cultural fullness

Armageddon or Har-magedon

Judgment would have been the starting point of human history

"Slay the dragon" was the probation phase

City of God – Megapolis would have been man's cultural endeavor

The Holy Spirit would have glorified man and the city to be Metapolis upon a successful probation. Only God can produce the beyond-city or Meta-city

Mountain of God – focus of Eden was a thrust outward to achieve the fullness of what the Lord had in mind.

Upper register has existed the entire time – heaven is God's achievement – not the result of human achievement. Change of man's perceptive capability.

Glorification takes us beyond our technology

Being like Christ will be the ultimate culture

Covenant of works

The knowledge of good and evil is a judicial function

This week, Chris and Lee are taking a week off. But we still want to bring you high quality biblical-theological content. So we've selected this lecture by Meredith G. Kline from his Pentateuch class at Westminster Seminary California because it was one of the few lectures we could think of where he specifically mentioned the incarnation. And that seems appropriate at this time of year. We hope you enjoy hearing directly from Meredith G. Kline!

In this episode, Chris Caughey talks with Lutheran pastor Jordan Cooper about the influence Meredith Kline's books had on him while he was still Reformed – and how they continue to influence him today. Part of what makes this conversation so interesting is the "language barrier" that exists in the way that different theological traditions use theological language. But Chris and Jordan handle the communication and translation respectfully.

In Chapter 2, Kline is still laying the theological foundation for his analysis of the sacraments of circumcision and baptism.

013 - An Interview With Jonathan Kline About Genesis: A New Commentary

Only one week into our new series where we work through By Oath Consigned, and we're already taking a break – but we think you'll understand why. We are excited to have the opportunity to interview Jonathan Kline about his grandfather's commentary – Genesis: A New Commentary – which was just recently published by Hendrickson Publishers. He has insight into this commentary that no one else will have. Also – notice how easy it is for him to rattle off the Hebrew – almost as if it were his first language. That definitely seems to be a trait of the Klines. Have a listen, and be sure to get a copy of the commentary as well as all of the other exciting resources listed in the show notes!

009 - The Framework Interpretation With Bill Baldwin

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 21 Oct 2016 13:00:00 +0000

Now that the creation wars seem to have died down a bit, we thought that it would be interesting to revisit the subject of the Framework Interpretation of Genesis 1 and 2. Now that we don't have to play defense as much, it seemed like a good time to give a positive presentation of the benefits of the Framework Interpretation, and to situate creation in the grand story that the Bible tells. To do this, we invited a special guest, our friend, Bill Baldwin to join us for the discussion. This episode is a little longer than most, but we think it's well worth it.

008 - Interview With Pastor Mike Brown About His Book About Samuel Petto's Covenant Theology

glorycloudpodcast@gmail.com (Chris Caughey) — Fri, 14 Oct 2016 13:00:00 +0000

Even though Meredith Kline invented new words at times, it is important to pause from time to time and take note of the fact that he was not the first one to say certain things. One seventeenth-century pastor-theologian who understood the Mosaic covenant very similarly to Meredith Kline was the English puritan Samuel Petto. Pastor Mike Brown of Christ United Reformed Church in Santee, CA was kind enough to come on the show and talk to Chris and Lee about the book that he has written about Petto, Petto's view of the Mosaic covenant, and Petto's pastoral use of his covenant theology for the comfort and assurance of believers. It was a privilege to talk to him, and we're sure you'll agree that it is a privilege to listen to him.
